Please note: This community music event will be held in lieu of our usual July General Meeting.

About the band: Funk N Spuds is a rock band who describes themselves as raw, jazzy, melodic, and uplifting. The band got its name because they believe their music, like a potato, is versatile, comforting, and perfect for any occasion – whether you’re dancing, chilling, or just savoring life’s moments! Comprised of seasoned musicians from around the Midwest and centered around the Meier Brothers, Funk N Spuds’ unique sound is an alchemy of groovy bass lines, electrifying guitar riffs, funky flugelhorn, and some of the best darn drumming you’ll hear in the Twin Cities.

For more information on the band, visit their website: funknspuds.com.  We can’t wait to see you there!

Project website

The design process for Quincy Street has been extended to provide time for additional engagement and to explore design options. The City is exploring the use of non-standard features to meet the unique needs, uses, and context of the roadway. A separate meeting for Quincy Street designs will be scheduled in the future.

What does this mean for the project?

The six other streets in the project area will be moving towards concept layout approval by the City Council this spring as originally planned. There will be future engagement opportunities with different ideas for Quincy at a future date, so we encourage those with an interest in Quincy to join our project email list to learn about these meetings. While some of the other six streets may start construction in 2026, Quincy would not start before 2027.

Join MNDOT at an upcoming public meeting to see how your feedback helped to shape the design options for improving Central Avenue Northeast. 

The goal of these changes is to enhance the safety and functionality of Central Ave. Northeast and may affect how you travel through the area and get home
